The referee's confusion was understandable as he could never imagine that the boy was able to create a stable soul pathway arrangement despite not following the standard soul pathway merger principles because he had simulated all the possible combinations one could think of to combine the available soul pathways and figured out the most efficient combination.
It was worth noting how the referee never considered maybe the boy was a genius card creationist rather he felt more comfortable thinking that the boy was lucky to get a familiar card to create for the challenge. Well, in the referee's eyes, the possibility of such a genius existing was similar to a miracle. So he did not spare any thought to it however it did not mean that he did not think the boy was a talented card creationist. It's just that he was underestimating the boy's talent in card creation.
In the recording, having created a new and stable soul pathway arrangement the boy then morphed the core into a card successfully creating the Bloody Lasso of Prohibition.
By now the audience had already concluded that the Southern card creationist association had rigged the challenge in the favor of their representative and Chris had the same thoughts. With knowledge of his ancestors, he had noticed many details of his opponent's card creation process and there was no doubt in his mind that his opponent was a talented card creationist. Considering his opponent's reputation of being a fraud and his opponent's card creation process being too smooth Chris concluded that this was not the first time his opponent had created the Bloody Lasso of Prohibition card.
Considering that at one point the referee himself had thought that the Southern card creationist association had rigged the challenge in the favor of their representative, it was not surprising that the audience and Chris would think the same. Therefore, the referee was in a pickle right now, because the recording of the boy's card creation process had only managed to legitimize the concerns of Chris Ainsworth and the audience that the boy had cheated so he could not think of a reason to explain that the Southern card creationist association did not rig the challenge but the boy was just lucky.
Fortunately, before Chris Ainsworth or the audience questioned the legitimacy of the challenge conducted by the Southern card creationist association the boy took the spotlight and said, "With the world's will and the rules in it as a witness I swear that I did not cheat in this challenge."
ραпdαn૦νel Before the crowd could react the light of righteousness shone on the head of the boy showing that the boy was not speaking a single word of falsehood. Then the boy turned to Chris Ainsworth and asked, "Is this enough for you to solve your doubts about my card creation? Or do you still feel that I cheated?"
Soon the spotlight switched on to Chris, whose expression had turned ugly as he knew that in a way boy did not cheat, it was Southern Emperor who had the challenge rigged. So the ones to cheat here were the Southern Emperor and Southern card creationist association, Chris knew he could not directly point his fingers at them so he snorted and said, "This only proves that you did not cheat but not that somebody manipulated the challenge in your favor behind the scene."
Watching the boy come forward and swear in the presence of the World's Will to clear his name the referee nodded in satisfaction but then hearing Chris's response he frowned, as what Chris stated was not unreasonable however it was not true and he did not have a way to prove that. So he was in a difficult position unable to prove the innocence of the Southern card creationist association.
Listening to Chris the audience nodded as they too had similar doubts because not even a single soul present in the auction house or watching the challenge live on the network was willing to think that somebody so talented in card creation existed.
"I did not know that the westerners were such sour losers," the voice of the boy resounded in the auction hall as he glanced at Chirs and added, "Fine, let us compete in another challenge but this time you select the set of random ingredients. This way you do not have any more reason to defend your incompetent ass when I beat it again."
Listening to the boy's words it wasn't just Chris and the audience who were surprised but the referee too. However, considering that the boy indeed had a lot of talent in card creation, the referee understood the boy's confidence, and the same was true for the audience. Now the only question in their mind was if Chris would go for it.
"You…" Chris glared at the Card soldier, someone whom he did not even put in his eyes was now taunting him and his motherland. Chris was enraged but he did not rashly agree to the Card soldier's proposal. He considered it for a while and before he prepared to agree to the boy's proposal he stopped seeing the Southern Emperor stand at the edge of the balcony of her family's exclusive VIP box and say, "Wyatt, you do not have to do that—"
Seeing the Southern Emperor suddenly interfere, the audience and the referee listened to her curiously but before she could make her intent clear she was interrupted by the boy, "Your Highness, please let me handle this."
Seeing the boy blatantly interrupt the Southern Emperor, the audience and viewers raised their eyebrows waiting to watch a show but to their surprise, the Southern Emperor glanced at the fraudster for a moment before returning to her seat. Witnessing this the audience could no longer keep calm understanding that there was more to the boy's relationship with the Southern emperor. This came as a huge shock to the admirers of the Southern emperor and the Southerners. How could they sit by and watch at the possibility of their precious jewel being hogged by one person? The Jewel of South belonged on a pedestal where they can shower it with their universal devotion, nobody could monopolize it.
